Abstract: A method is disclosed to operate a spread spectrum receiver with an active set of base stations. The method includes monitoring a current serving base station of the active set with a Set Searcher and simultaneously monitoring individual ones of remaining base stations of the active set with a C/I (carrier-to-interference ratio) Searcher. One of the remaining base stations is designated as a Candidate base station for potentially replacing the current serving base station and is monitored continuously by a first set of fingers of the C/I Searcher. The other remaining ones of the base stations of the active set are monitored in a time multiplexed manner by a second set of fingers of the C/I Searcher. The method further includes detecting that one of the remaining ones of the base stations of the active set is received with a stronger signal than the Candidate base station, and designating the detected one of the base stations as a new Candidate base station, and beginning the continuous monitoring of the new Candidate base station while monitoring the other remaining ones of the base stations of the active set, including the previous Candidate base station, in the time multiplexed manner. A spread spectrum receiver that operates in accordance with the method is also disclosed.

Abstract: In a recording tape cartridge, a reel, at which a magnetic tape is wound around a
cylindrical tube portion of a reel hub provided at an axially central portion of the reel, is
accommodated within a case so as to be movable in an axial direction between a ceiling
plate and a floor plate. A locking member can be set at a restricting position, at which, in a
state in which the reel is shifted toward the floor plate, a lock portion is disposed in a gap
between a top end portion of the reel and the ceiling plate and the locking member restricts
axial direction movement of the reel, and a restriction releasing position, at which the
locking member is withdrawn from the restricting position and permits the axial direction
movement of the reel. When the locking member is positioned at the restricting position,
among surfaces of the reel which face toward the floor plate, only a bottom end surface of
an annular rib, which is a portion positioned further toward a radial direction inner side
than an outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical tube portion, abuts an abutment surface
of the case.

Inventor: FUJITA SHUJI
IPC: B62D5/04

Abstract: The CPU (11) calculates axial force matching external force that acts on a rack bar (34) by combining steering torque MT that acts on a steering shaft (33) with assist torque AT generated by an electric motor (30). The CUP (11) then determines whether a vehicle is running straight based on a steering angle θ, a vehicle speed V, and the axial force F. Thus, even in a state where a control steering angle midpoint is deviated and a driver applies torque so as to return a turning position of a steering wheel (31) to a neutral position, whether the vehicle is running straight can be accurately determined by making a determination by using the axial force F that acts on the rack bar (34). The CPU (11) can set a considerably accurate control steering angle midpoint by calculating a smoothed steering angle midpoint by using an instantaneous steering angle midpoint in an accurately determined straight-running state.

Abstract: While a PWM-controlled, FET-switched three-phase motor (26) is operating
in a mechanical damping mode, a single current sensor (32) is used to measure current
in the motor (26). When mechanical feedback into the motor (26) exceeds a
predetermined threshold, a bank of the FET switches (S1 - S6) can be closed to
provide damping of the mechanical feedback. This causes currents to circulate within
the motor (26), which an external single current sensor cannot measure to determine
current load or when the mechanical feedback is no longer a problem. The present
invention periodically switches selected switches necessary to sample the current in at
least one phase of the motor (26) to determine when the mechanical feedback into the
motor (26) is no longer a problem, while preferably also maintaining an average zero
voltage vector.
